Love The Way You Lie down! Rihanna falls flat on her face as she takes embarrassing stage tumble

By CHRIS JOHNSON

Ooh Na Na: Rihanna trips on stage as she performed her hit song What's My Name in Edmonton, Canada, last Wednesday, one of the stops on her Loud world tour


Rihanna may have quite justifiably asked 'What's My Name?' after face-planting floor in this embarrassing stage fall.

The Barbadian singer was appropriately singing the hit song as she took a tumble in front of thousands of fans.

The 23-year-old star was entertaining a 16,000-strong crowd in Edmonton, Canada, on her Loud world tour when she lost her footing.


Going: The singer was wearing dangerously high heels for her performance


However, ever the professional, the racy singer quickly sprung back into action as she tottered on dangerously high heels.

The incident happened last Wednesday on the fourth night of Rihanna's six-date stop in Canada.

The Love The Way You Lie singer returned to Los Angeles yesterday, just in time to make it for the BET Awards after party.


Going... gone: Rihanna falls to the floor after losing her footing


However she arrived only to face more embarrassment, after it emerged an trophy at the show which had initially been awarded to her was actually given in error and should have gone to ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

The farce started when television personality Tiffany Greene, along with 106 & Park hosts Terrence J. and Rocsi took to the stage to present the Viewers' Choice Award.
Greene look confused as she proclaimed the winner to be Chris Brown for his song Look At Me Now.


Back to business: But she quickly sprung back into action


But then Terrence quickly stepped in an said: 'I'm sorry, it's Rihanna for What's My Name... this is awkward.'

Rapper Drake, who collaborated on the track with Rihanna, then came to the stage to accept the award.

He said: 'This is awkward,' before making a short acceptance speech and leaving the stage.

However around 30 minutes later, at the end of the show, the main host Kevin Hart clarified the matter by saying Chris Brown was in fact the winner.

Amy Winehouse booed and jeered by Serbian crowd as she slurs and stumbles her way through Belgrade concert

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

A let down: Amy Winehouse looked inebriated as she arrived on stage an hour late in Serbia, staggered about, slurred her words and was jeered by the audience


Earlier this month she checked out of rehab and was given the go ahead to embark on her European tour.

But it would seem that Amy Winehouse has spectacularly fallen off the wagon as her Serbian fans found out to their horror last night.

The singer was booed as she took to the stage in Belgrade on the first leg of her 12-date stint, and looked intoxicated as she stumbled around the stage.


Hello: Amy holds on to her guitarist who she went over and hugged as after being introduced onto the stage at Belgrade's Kalemegdan Park


An hour after she was due to arrive on stage, after being introduced by one of her backing singers, she staggered on and made her way to the back to hug one of her guitarists.

Wearing a short green and black dress that accentuated her cosmetically-enhanced breasts, she sat down on one of the speakers and adjusted her shoes while her concerned backing singer asked if she was ok and steadied her back to her microphone.

Amy, 27, looked confused and then took off one of her shoes which she threw on the floor before walking unsteadily over to her microphone.


Are you ok? As she stumbled around looking lost, her backing singer grabbed her hand in concern


After missing her cue a couple of times, she proceeded to deliver a half-spoken and mumbled version of her song Just Friends, her last release back in 2008.

Halfway through, slurring her words which she had difficulty stringing together, she told the crowd at the city's Kalemegdan Park: 'Let me bring the band introduction.'

But then she tried to continue singing the song, smiling all the while, seemingly oblivious of how she was coming across to her fans.

After hugging herself and failing to sing most of the song, she then came back in as the band finished, looked surprised and then slurred 'Just Friends' into the microphone as an astonished crowd booed and halfheartedly clapped.

The situation didn't improve much throughout the concert, as the Back to Black singer disappeared off stage several times leaving her band playing.

And according to local press reports, the 20,000 fans described as a 'scandal' and a 'disaster'.


What is she doing? To the amusement of her band, Amy bends over on stage to take off one of her shoes


Fans were also angry as may had paid about £35 a ticket which is a lot of money in a country where the average salary is about £274 a month.

One fan angrily wrote on YouTube - where videos of her disastrous performance have been posted - that he was still mad at her.

They fumed: 'She started a show and turned her back to public (btw, for most of us it was not that easy to give the money for ticket because of the economic situation in Serbia) and that was just the beginning of her disrespect and bizarre behavior.

'She did not sang one song from beginning to the end, Some of them she didn't even tried to sing. Not a fan anymore'

Amy is due in Turkey tomorrow to play Istanbul's Kucuk Ciftlik Park and also has dates in Greece, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, Hungary and Romania, finishing up on 15 August at Iolanda Balas Soter Stadium, Bucharest.

Earlier this month she checked out of The Priory Clinic at the suggestion of her father, Mitch, over concerns she was drinking too much prior to her live shows.


Outrage: Fans, who had paid a lot of money to see her play, turned on the star afterwards and called the show a 'disaster'


Her spokesman said: 'Amy Winehouse has completed her assessment at the Priory Clinic in London and will continue as an outpatient.

'She is now looking forward to playing shows around Europe this summer and is raring to go.

'She would like to send a huge thanks to all her fans for the messages of support she has received over the last week and can't wait to see them.'

Dry me out! Plucky Pixie Lott wears tiny hotpants and crop top outfit despite cold and pouring rain at Isle Of Wight festival

By JODY THOMPSON and EMILY SHERIDAN

Hippy chic: Pixie Lott ignored the freezing rain and wore a tiny paisley crop top and matching hotpants to perform at the Isle Of Wight festival today


It was an outfit more suited to a hippy gathering in sunny San Francisco - but Pixie Lott disregarded the rainy delights of a soggy British summer to wear a psychedelic hotpants and crop top combo at the Isle Of Wight festival today.

The Cry Me Out singer got a soaking as she tried to cheer up the bedraggled crowd in her skimpy paisley print outfit, but according to Mail Online reporters joining the audience in mud and pouring rain, she wasn't having much luck.

She'd accessorised her festival chic outfit with the obligatory wellies and a a flower-strewn hairband - but a mackintosh might have been more suitable.



Cheeky: The Cry Me Out singer tried her best to cheer up the cold and soaking crowd with her bottom-skimming flower power style and hippy make-up


The stoic 20-year-old star made a valiant effort however to put a smile on people's faces, despite the fact she must have been freezing.


c'mon boys and girls! The star really appeared to be giving it her all to get the audience engaged and take their minds off the weather


As well as her own hits like Mama Do, Boys And Girls and Turn It Up, she peppered her set with cover versions, including her take on Adele's Someone Like You, Katy B's Lights On, Chris Brown's Beautiful People and Aloe Blacc's I Need A Dollar.

However, on top of the atrocious weather, her set was plagued by sound problems, meaning half the soaked audience weren't able to hear her properly.


Tough gig: The singer made a hand gesture at one point however that almost seemed like she was thumbing a lift home


Turn it up! The crowd looked like they were too cold and wet to get into Pixie's poptastic set - and sound problems didn't help


As already reported by Mail Online, Kate Moss is having her hen do at three day bash with a 'Big Fat Gypsy Wedding' theme, as revealed by festival organiser John Giddings.

To celebrate her forthcoming nuptials to The Kills Jamie Hince next month, she and her 30 odd revellers - including Jade Jagger, Meg Mathews and Sadie Frost - are said to have downed 120 bottles of Mahiki rum.

They were said to have ordered another 180 botles which were being helicoptered in, and they also polished off magnums of Cristal champagne, plus bottles of Tanqueray gin and Grey Goose vodka.


Grim: After two days of good weather, conditions took a turn for the worse today


Muddy brilliant: Some revellers were still determined to have a good time however


This year's headliners are Kings of Leon, Foo Fighters and Kasabian.

Day one saw Kings Of Leon and Kaiser Chiefs, whereas yesterday saw Seasick Steve, Iggy and the Stooges, Stornoway, Lissie, Mike and the Mechanics, Hurts, before Foo Fighters and Pulp topped the bill.

Kasabian will round off the bash today after the likes of Beady Eye, The Script, Plan B and special guest Jeff Beck have strutted their stuff on stage.

Although the weather had been good for the first two days of the festival, the site has been plagued by heavy rain today.

Many revellers have decided to make the most of the conditions however and play around in the mud.
